applicant. However, the trial Court was directed to expedite the trial and conclude the same as early as possible.

¶21

After passing the order, Shri B.P. Singh, learned counsel for the applicant has repeatedly requested this Court to direct the trial Court to conclude the trial within a specified time. On which, this Court was not inclined and has already passed the order to expedite the trial as early as possible. Upon hearing the dictation, Mr. Singh has stated that this Court is adamant. He has been warned by this Court that such type of behaviour will not be tolerated by this Court on which he said that he has right to make repeated request and he may be exempted from this Court forever.

¶22

Noting such unacceptable conduct of the counsel, this Court has ordered that such kind of behavior and argument of Mr. B.P. Singh, Advocate, be kept on record.

¶23

At this stage, Shri B.P. Singh, learned counsel submits that when the order was being dictated in M.Cr.C.No.8726/2024 on 19.12.2024 he could not hear the dictation properly, therefore, he tried to convince the Court and repeatedly requested the Court to conclude the trial within a specified time and due to bonafide mistake, he made the submission, for which, he tenders unconditional apology to the Court and prays that the remarks made the last para of the order dated 19.12.2024 passed in MCRC No.8726/2024 be expunged.

¶24

¶25

Having considered the unconditional apology tendered by the learned Counsel himself, this Court is inclined to recall and expunge the remarks recorded in the last para(s) of the order dated 19.12.2024 against Mr. B.P. Singh, Advocate. Accordingly, that part of the order dated 19.12.2024 is recalled.

¶26

In view of the above, Cr.M.P. stands disposed of.
